With a 28.78 per cent stake, for which it had shelled out Rs 6,600 crore, Diageo already has a strategic management control over USL, India's largest spirits player. Its second open offer, which aims to take the holding in the Indian company to 54.78 per cent, is estimated to cost Rs 11,448 crore. If the offer is successful, the London company's total investment in the United Spirits would reach Rs 18,000 crore, about 38 times USL's consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) for the year ended March 31, 2013. Mallya, along with a slew of his companies, holds 9.83 per cent in USL
